[Freedos-user] Updating CauseWay
Hello! It's me again. I changed my compiler back to Open Watcom 1.1, because 1.2 can't compile the Duke Nukem 3D source code. :) But now, I have a problem: it comes with an old version of CauseWay, and I don't know how can I update to the latest CW. Can somebody help me? I downloaded cw349.zip from Mr. Devore's site. I think it is the latest version.

Re: [Freedos-user] fdos install to f:
Hi Anders: There are two ways I know of to do this. One is to boot a floppy disk or hard disk image using ISOLINUX/SYSLINUX which probably isn't what you want. The second is to install a FreeDOS boot sector directly to the USB stick. There is a utility from HP that may work for you. It will install a FreeDOS boot sector to a USB device and may work for your flash memory. WindowsXP does not make this easy. DOwnload SP27213.EXE from ftp://ftp.compaq.com/pub/softpaq/sp27001-27500 You will have to run the installer and point the utility to a directory or device containing the FreeDOS kernel.sys and command.com files. I used a floppy disk image...this can just be a Windows directory. I believe the utility has a FreeDOS boot sector built-in to it. See also http://fd-doc.sourceforge.net/faq/cgi-bin/viewfaq.cgi?faq=Installing_FreeDOS/316 The download link for the HP utility doesn't work from this page. The same tool can also install MSDOS. Let us know if you have any questions. A quick posting to the e-mail list about what you had to do and how it worked might help someone else.

[Freedos-user] Which are the best kernel and command.com for modern systems?
Hello, all: I've been trying to follow the e-mail updates, but have become rather confused! :-) What kernel and command.com would be the best bet for working on most modern computers? I know that I need the patch for computers without a floppy disk! Should I just grab the development kernel from http://fdos.org/kernel/? Thanks very much.

It's not a bug in OW. When Charlie Wiederhold prepared the source code for the release, the latest OW compiler was 1.0. So he ported the original Watcom 11-optimized code to this compiler. Then the OW team made big changes in 1.2, so the code can't be compiled with 1.2 without some modifications. But I don't have time to make these modifications. I can't remember the error messages correctly, but there are a lots of Type of parameter 1 does not agree with previous definition errors.

Can somebody help me? I downloaded cw349.zip from Mr. Devore's site. I think it is the latest version. Open Watcom 1.5 has a later 4.x version, but the differences are mostly academic for 99.99% of users. There are also stub or ASM updates around, but nothing major. You can use CWSTUB.EXE (possibly known as CW32.EXE) to run a program stand-alone by overriding a boundiin extender, e.g. CWSTUB APP32.EXE. Or you can update a bound-in extender to current CW version via CW349.EXE, possibly named CW32.EXE, via the /U switch, e.g. CW349 /U APP32.EXE. Really I don't remember the exact executable names, but there simply aren't that many of them to be a big deal and running them separately to see what they do won't bite you. Alternatively, you could split out the original extender stub from your EXE and copy in a CW stub via COPY /B command. Or you could just recompile with a recent OW and have the extender bound-in as part of the linking process. All the advantages of Linux Managed Hosting--Without the Cost and Risk!

May you quote for us both declaration (prototype) and diagnosed definition?

You have to have bios that support USB disks at boot time through INT13H. If not then there be a usbaspi driver on the web...
